Rabbi Solomon Goldman,
nation as rabbi of tbe Cleveland Jewish Center to accept a call from the Anshe Emetli Congregation of Chicago. The resignation will take effect June 30th.
Rabbi Goldman has occup'ed thc pulpit of the Cleveland Jewish Center for thc past seven years. For three years'prior to that he was spiritual leader of the Bnai Jcshurun Congregation.

May I be permitted to submit to you my resignation from the Rabbinate of the Jewish Center to take effect on the 30th of June, 1929? This is not the re¬ sult of a hasty decision. It is now well nigh seven months that I have been delib¬ erating and struggling vvith myself. I hope that I need not tell you how difiicult I find it to leave the Jewish Center and the host of young and old, who have come to be as dear to me as members of my own family.
I mn accepting the pulpit of a congre gation, one fourth in size of the Center Congregation, and am'doing it primarily because the Chicago pulpit seems to promise more peace of mind and an op¬ portunity to engage more intensively in my scholarly pursuits.
Not In Spirit
Need I add that even though I depart from thc congregation, I shall never be away^ from you in spirit. My years with you have brought me great happiness. I have been permitted to make fine friend¬ ships. The decade that I spent in Cleve¬ land will stand out in my life to its last day, as a source of inspiration and joy.

His Jewish education he received privately, until he entered the Talmudic College of Rahbi Isaac Elcho- nan, where he devoted himself tor six years to the study of rabbinic literature. From the Talmudic Academy, Rabbi Goldman went to New York University, where he received his BA, and to tlie Jewish Theological Seminary of America, where he received the Alumni Associa¬ tion prize, the highest award at that time in the institution, for a work' on "The Attitude of the Pharisees Towards Rome." Rabbi Goldman also won the theology prize for an essay on "The Jewish Conception of Holiness." He also won the sermon prize. From 1917 to 1919 Rabbi Goldpian was a student in the graduate school of Columbia Univer¬ sity, speciaUzing in philosophy under Professors Dency, Woodbridgei and Mon^ tague.
Activity IdentiOed

Tlie High School was for boys and girls who were confirmed. He was the first to introduce into Jewisli Cleveland a forum, detached from services. The Center forum for five years was regard¬ ed as one of the high water marks in educational activity in the city of Cleve land.

It is now well nigh seven months that I have been delib¬ erating and struggling vvith myself. I hope that I need not tell you how difiicult I find it to leave the Jewish Center and the host of young and old, who have come to be as dear to me as members of my own family.
I mn accepting the pulpit of a congre gation, one fourth in size of the Center Congregation, and am'doing it primarily because the Chicago pulpit seems to promise more peace of mind and an op¬ portunity to engage more intensively in my scholarly pursuits.
Not In Spirit
Need I add that even though I depart from thc congregation, I shall never be away^ from you in spirit. My years with you have brought me great happiness. I have been permitted to make fine friend¬ ships. The decade that I spent in Cleve¬ land will stand out in my life to its last day, as a source of inspiration and joy.
